"My installer was meticulous and paid attention to every little detail. He did excellent workmanship and had pride in his accomplishment. I love the results and was glad I had the shower enlarged and the ceramic is beautiful. It is a pleasure to take a shower."

"In contrast to many of the other people who do this work, Thompson's has someone who answers the phone and makes an appointment for an estimate.  I was especially pleased with the thoroughness of the explanation of the work given by Mike, who did the estimate.  I especially appreciated the how he explained in detail some of the problems that might come up, for example, that my basement stairs would have to be ripped out, and that my laundry sink would probably need to be replaced.  The vendor I spoke with before tended to gloss over what the work would actually be like.  Once the work started I saw that both these things had to be done, but I really appreciated knowing about it BEFORE the work started.  The price was good so I signed up.  I was pleased with the progress of the actual job, supervised by Danny.  The crew worked long hours, were pleasant and easy to deal with,  and finished the job up quickly. 
      I was particularly impressed with the support after the job was finished.  In the process of disconnecting and reconnecting the laundry sink, the plumber took one look at the 70 year old lead drain pipe and told me that it might get cracked in the process.  He was correct!  But I was very pleased with the response.  Jeff, the general manager, sent someone out right away to bust up a big section of the cement floor to expose the cracked pipe.  The plumber came in and fixed the pipe and a few days later another Thompson's crew came out to cover the area up with fresh cement.  It all went very smoothly with no extra charge from Thompson's.   One other nice feature, by the way, is the fact that the Thompson's warranty can be transferred when you sell your house.   So the takeaway is this:  getting a channel drain installed is a messy, noisy, dusty job, but Thompson's made it a better experience than it might have been.

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

The main causes for a leaky toilet flapper include wear and tear or a broken or incorrectly installed toilet flapper chain. If your toilet flapper is torn or deteriorated, it can’t provide a proper seal to keep water from running. Meanwhile, a chain that has come loose, was moved, or just wasn’t installed right can prevent your flapper from fully closing.

Sink discoloration from water is caused by any of a number of different kinds of minerals in hard water, including iron and manganese. To avoid the staining that hard water can cause, install a water softener to remove minerals from the water as it enters your home. Rusty pipes can also cause discoloration, and may be the culprit if only one sink is stained.

While you shouldn’t increase the flow of your low-flow toilet by adjusting the water level in the toilet bowl set by the manufacturer, you can make the flow as efficient as possible by ensuring the rim jets under the rim are unobstructed. To do this, use a mirror to look under the rim and scrub them with a toothbrush or a small wire to clear any debris stuck in the holes. You can also watch for leaks, make sure the internal components are in good shape, and replace them if necessary.

It’s usually best to hire a certified master plumber to perform plumbing work in your home. Certified plumbers will be able to tackle most plumbing jobs and will have experience with drainage problems, water supply pipes, and appliances. This type of plumber is the most expensive, but the price is well worth it. You could opt for a journeyperson or an apprentice, which will be more affordable, but the reduced experience means your repair may not be as high-quality. Avoid hiring a handyperson for plumbing work unless you’re dealing with a simple issue, like a clog or a leaky faucet.

To unclog the drain pipe, remove the machine's drain hose from the pipe or sink drain, being careful to contain any water in it. Next, use a plunger for sink drains or a plumbing snake for a wall drain. Test the repair by pouring a small amount of water into the pipe before trying it with a laundry load.
